it's a mainstream TV show...
it's geared to a mainstream audience...
I dunno what 'real' has to do with it, especially since 'real' is an individual view
it's made for 'entertainment'...
it will satisfy, or appeal to, the prurient interests of a target audience...
I don't understand the expectations any one would have of a mainstream, commercial TV show...it makes no claims other than to entertain those who choose to watch it, and (implicit) to make money for those who are financially invested...
it's just a TV show...I have no expectation of socially sensitive, inclusive, or otherwise politically expansive content from mainstream TV...it's a business...and I am under no obligation to watch it...
that's why they invented then clicker...which I will now use on myself !! ;>
